If he can and will plainly, unequivocally,
without lodging or subterfuge, come out and
over his signature deny the truth of each and
every one of these charges, and will prove to
the satisfaction of any unbiased man that the
charges are not true, then the ''Yost combi-
nation about which he complains, will not
only withdraw every charge they have pre-
ferred against him, but zealously labor to Sc
cure his election. Valley Virgiqaian.
Great Scott! Ned don's you do it If
they are going to support you in the Dem
ocratic county OF Augusta you are gone
What is the "Virginian" after anyhow?
Does it want to defeat everybody? Craig
and Dunlap are hopeless; Fultz and Lyle
haven't even a show; and now the "Vir-
ginian" wants to defeat the Democratic
ticket by supporting that This is the
widest proposition yet !

One result of the carnival OF games Of
chance'' at; the District Fair here last
week, has been the arousing of public
opinion against it which will not sleep
again till State law be enacted putting
an end to such exhibitions throughout
Virz ina. The Woodstock, Lexington
and Lynchburg fairs, from what we hear
were in no better plight than Staunton in
This respect. AS many attractive amuse-
meuts as you like; but no more games of
chance, is to be the written law Of Vir-
GINA Hereafter, if we do not much mistake

Ben. j. Craig and W. Bailey Dunlap
are honest, respected, intelligent citizens2
So they are, and the INDICATOR says
that of them too! But what has that got
to do with it Is vote for William Ma
hone for U. s. Senator any the less abhOr-
ent to tbs people of Virginia because it is
cast by an honest man? Is the restora-
ton Of the Republican party to power in
Virginia any the less abhorent to the peo-
pie of Virginia because respected but mis-
guided men bring it about by their votes
Do you suppose if the Republican coupon
rendering, Public Scbool-wreeking policy
brought the school system of Virgin
ia to the plight Of 1878 again, that the
poor people whose children were growing
up in ignorance around closed school
houses, would be better satisfied because
the ruin had been wrought by respectable
citizens? No; Craig and Dunlap are on
the a0rong ticket; in ENHANCEMENT with
the smart politicians, and the people will
tell them that at the ballot box.

WISCONSIN. -Wausau.-We reprint
the following good news from this parish
from local paper, with congratulations
upon such evident signs of progress:
"The Universalists of Wausau held their
annual reunion in their meeting house,
Tuesday evening, Oct. II. The exercises
of the occasion consisted of music, recit-
alton and general exchange of social
views and ideas. After the mental needs
of the congregat lion were satisfied their
physical necessities were supplied by
the ladies who had provided a bountiful
banquet. Altogether it was very enjoy.
able affair.
"The prospects Of this church are
bright. During the past year pretty
little church has been completed and
dedicated and better than that paid for;
the parish has been reorganiz I'd on a
better basis than ever before, and Sun
day-school organized and maintained;
the pastor has been paid and liberal con-
tributions been given toward missions; a
good number have united with the
church, and stronger in numbers and
free from debt, it starts the new year with
increased faith and courage. Rev. Mr..
Rogers will remain with the church an
other year."

IOWA West UniOn.-The church
organized here with seven members
about eight months ago, has increased
to seventeen. The Sunday school is do.
ing finely. About sixty pupils are en-
rolled and there is a good average at
tendance. As soon as the farm belong
ing to the parish can be advantageously
disposed Of they hope to begin building
Rev. James Gorton is pastor.
CALIFORNIA Oakland.-W learn,
by letter that the Oakland church is very
much olive and going steadily forward
with its work; gradually growing strong
or and more confident of its future.
The meetings are held every Sunday at
IL A. NJ, in Hamilton Hall, corner Thir-
teenth street and Jefferson avenue; res
idence of the pastor, Rev. s. GoodenOugh,
1860 Harrison street. Universalists, who
are visiting the city, or who are to be-
come residents, are cordially invited to
attend the meetings, or to call upon the
pastor. If more convenient, strangers
may call upon DIR. Southland, corner OF
Fourteenth and Castro streets; or Major
Robinson, 1914 Filbert street. in Oakland
or, in San Francisco, Room 229, Phelan
Building, near Palace Hotel. BY making
themselves known they will be most
cordially welcomed by the friends there,
who will feel themselves encouraged and
helped thereby.

Everywhere people are drifting from the
old anchorage grounds. Our opportunit-
les are great. We have done substantial
work as pledge for the right use of
larger trusts. An appeal was then made
for pledges to the missionary fund for the
ensuing year, and the sum of $3.50 secur-
ed. The evening collection for the bene-
fit of the Convention amounted to $3.50.
There was another excellent conference
meeting on Thursday morning, Rev. o.
g. Colegrove, leader.
The special committee on the Executive
Committees report recommended. l.
That $1,000 be raised for Missionary
work, the Executive Committee to issue
an appeal asking that the sum already
secured be increased to that amount. Q.
That 5000 be appropriated to the Hills
dale. and 5000 to the Rochester parishes
conditionally. 8. That the raising of
Permanent Fund be left to the Execu-
tive Committee with power. The recon-
mendations were adopted.
1t was voted that in the program for
the next Convention an hour be set apart
to hear reports from parishes.
The following was adopted:
RESOLVED. That the thanks of this Conven-
ton are due, are hereby heartily given to the
Railway Association of Michigan for favors
extended; to Rev. s. HI. Robin for his time
ly and able occasional sermon; and to the par
ish and people of Hillsdale for the hospitable
entertainment which its members have re-
ceived at their hands.
Rev. j. 81. Palmer then read an exceed
ingly able paper on Corporate Oppres-
siop." 1t was a severe arrangement of
monopolies which, in pursuit of gain are
Indifferent to human life and individual
welfare. The style was trenchent and
epigramatic, and. the paper elected the
closest attention from beginning to end.
No abstract could do it justice.
At noon the session of the Convention
was brought to a close, the members
uniting in song and the Lords Prayer, the
benediction being pronounced by our VEN
cradle brother, Rev. Robert Woodin.
1t was the unanimous testimony that
for attendance, ability and esprit du corps,
the Hillsdale Convention was unexcelled,
even by its immediate predecessors.

nLINOIS.-ChicagO and Vicinity
The new chapel of st. PaulPs on Prairie
avenue, was comfortably filled last Sun
day morning. The congregation was the
largest of the season. The people seemed
delighted with their new home. The ele-
CANT room, with it's stained glass windows
and beautiful appointments and the au-
tumn sunshine streaming in, infused its
own cheerfulness into the hearts of the
people. The pastor preached from the
words: "Ye shall know the truth and the
truth shall make you Free" At the
close of the sermon, the infant daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. N. B. Judah, was dedi-
GATED, receiving the name Helen Alice,
With a touchingly beautiful service. A
spirit of cheer and hopefulness pervades
the congregation; and when the new
church is occupied, no doubt the new St.
PauPs will witness an enlargement Of
the parish.
Church of Our Father.-Last Sunday
was the "Harvest Sabbath with this
church. The auditorium was beautifully
decorated by the committee, of which
Mrs. d. W. Richardson is Chairman. An
increased congregation was present in the
morning and the pastor preached an ap-
propriate sermon. In the evening the
Sunday-school gave the Helper Harvest
exercise. It was concert most credita-
BILE to the school, and the people pres
emit showed their appreciation by liber-
al contribution. Monday evening the
Young Peoples Union with its friends
enjoyed Halloween Party in the ves-
try. Wednesday evening praise and
conference meetings are being held reg
ularly and good interest is manifest.

necessary to organize and discipline said
courses. Most of the parents are such as
do not feel able to contribute for preach

are looking forward to the time, not far
distant, we trust, when our church and
college will furnish us with young men

some such willing to enter upon this work
